So I got this installed in my WS Ace X570 Asus board in the 2nd slot. lspci --v -s 0c:00.0 confirms it's running at x8 electrical.
However sequential reads don't break ~ 700-800MB/s
Simple operations like "pvcreate" or "vgextend" take a VERY long time (minutes).
kernel is 5.11.0-25-generic (Ubuntu 21.04). Anyone have any idea what the issue could be? I'm ok with slow writes, but I expected at least fast, sequential reads.
RealSSD Manager says it's in "good health" with 97% life remaining. Temperature is 73c. Firmware: B2100600 Link speed 5.0GT/s (x8)
Power limit disabled.
